Favorite thing about being an eye doctor:
Interacting with patients. Helping them to become educated about how their eyes and vision actually work.
Eye care tip:
Eye care is certainly about correcting a person's vision to get the best possible vision through glasses and contacts, but also about making sure that their eyes are healthy, and stay healthy to continue to provide that for their lifetime.
More about Dr. Haefs:
I'm born and raised in Wisconsin and lived here all my life (except for going to Optometry School in Chicago). Surprisingly, many patients think that I must be from Illinois since I went to Optometry School there... PACKERS FAN!
